Weekend Wisdom

Happy Weekend, lovelies! Due in part to the never ending rainy weather, I seriously thought this past work week was never going to end. Needless to say once Friday afternoon rolled around, I was elated for 48 hours of quality rest and relaxation.

As I have confessed in the past, I'm obsessed with quotes. Any and all quotes. It doesn't matter whether the pieces of wisdom come from movies, music, books, historians, or just the average joe. And when I need a swift kick in the rear, much of my motivation comes from my quote book. So, I'm bringing back the 'Weekend Wisdom' feature. Each weekend I will share one of my favorites with y'all and hope to pass along the inspiration.

PS... Check out my new 2013 inspiration board (here) and my past ones too (here and here). Do you have a favorite quotation? If so, let me know! Would love to add it to my ever-growing collection.

Why Don't You...

...wear red lipstick on a week day? 

...start a jewelry collection? This bauble would be a lovely addition.

...paint your nails navy blue? I'm currently wearing this shade.

...read a stack of magazines? Can't get enough of this one. 

...go for a bike ride? Preferably with a cute partner ;)

So, what are you waiting for? Let's all do something this weekend that makes our hearts smile.

Hello 2013!

1 year. 365 days. 8,765 hours.

Every New Years Eve, I say the same thing... Where did the time go? Despite telling myself there are plenty of days and hours to achieve my list of resolutions, life takes over and half of the year is in the rearview mirror before I have a chance to blink. 

So I'm vowing to make this year different. Throw resolutions out the window (besides, I have my 101 in 1001 list!), cherish each moment, and take nothing for granted. To love and laugh. To forgive and forget. To be thankful and humble. To travel the path that the Lord planned for my life. And I have a feeling in my heart that this year will be my year. 

Cheers to 2013 and Happy (belated) New Year!
